No-one needs more than a 600/650 cc bike

If you want to chop bitchez at clubs you need 1000CC+. 600CC is like showing up in a civic. You wouldn't know anything about it anyways...

Also a 600CC harley would put out like what, 9HP?

I'm planning on upgrading to a 600 SS in the next year or so, and at least now I agree with the OP's statement when it comes to SS bikes, when used on the road only. Honestly, my CBR250R does everything perfect up to around 100km/h, and the new Ninja 300R had been out a year ago (and I bought it instead), I might not have been looking to upgrade so soon or at all (although I know eventually I'd want something that could rival a real sports car in terms of performance).

With that said, if we are talking non SS, then yeah, I can definitely see more than 600 due to the hp per cc those bikes tend to put out, not to mention the increased weight.

As for the comment about 'no one needs more than a civic', realistically a 250 would be the civic in that scenario. Using cars again, the 600 SS to 1000 SS (so say CBR600RR vs S1000RR) is more like saying a M3 or even a Porsche 991 is too slow...I need a Gallardo/Veyron. Again, not knocking anyone who does go for the 1000cc SS as everyone has a right to buy whatever they can afford -- I'm simply commenting on the notion someone 'needs' (or rather requires) one.

I bet you wont be saying this the minute you (OWN) a 600ss , you'll think your 250r is a go kart and its not from the HP its from the better made frame,suspension etc and parts that are made to be used harder than most bikes even thou you'll never fully abuse them. Unless crashing or not giving the proper maintenance.

600+ offer more than lower cc bikes that's why I bought one.

I rather have a bike that does 120 on the highway and not be round 8k-9k rpm near its red line sitting that close to red line starts to abuses the motor.

This OP convo should have started you dont really need a bike with over 80hp on the streets that wopuld have made it a little more clear

If i took this logic i would never had bought a 70" tv and would have stayed with my old 19" boob tube.

Tis the season when there's nothing else to talk about in the motorcycling world besides stupid topics like this one.
 
If you only use your bike for commuting all you need is enough HP to get you up the steepest hill. After that it's pleasure and motivation. In the western world dying by starvation or exposure is almost unheard of so what is the motivation to excel?

It's whatever gets you out of bed in the morning.
